Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 131 "Myth"

In order to make up for his self-assertion last time, Shi Nansheng moved quickly.In just three days, a detailed information was sorted out.

However, there are not many powerful special effects companies involved, the most notable being George Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic.It can be regarded as the fastest growing and most powerful special effects company at present.It is also the first special effects company that specializes in film and television post-production services.

It is currently impossible to extend your hand to this company.After all, the influence of "Star Wars" is still alive.The family's operation is very healthy and will not be resold.

Except for special effects companies, the rest are some well-known talents in the industry who are good at special effects.Most of them were learned by Shi Nansheng from James Cameron.

At this time, Su Chengcai suddenly realized that before James came to Tengyue Entertainment, he was also working on special effects.Maybe, through him, a few great talents can be recruited!
In an instant, it reminded him of the famous Stan Winston, the great talent who founded the digital field of the special effects company with James in later generations.The two got to know each other while doing special effects in the movie "Alien 2" which had already fallen to their Tengyue company.I'm afraid now, I'll get to know you in advance!
And when it comes to special effects companies, there is a saying in later generations: "One fifty cents, one Vita."

Wumao special effects, that is, "too fake, a special effect model that can be seen through at a glance."

Weta refers to the Weta digital effects company founded by Peter Jackson and Charlie De Taylor.The models they make can make the fake ones look like the real ones, making people unable to tell them apart, as if bringing the virtual world into reality.It can be seen from this.

As for the representative works of Weta Digital Special Effects Company, there are many, such as "Lord of the Rings", "X-Men", "Avengers", "The Hobbit", "Avatar" and so on.

However, the current two founders are not very old, so try to win them over!

In the end, it was Joe Letteri, the special effects master recommended by James.Regardless of the ability, at least Cameron's appreciation can't be wrong.

With this in mind, Su Cheng directly asked Shi Nansheng to start poaching these people. As for the other people, first take down these people and establish a framework.Then let them go to slowly screen.Anyway, now that Su Cheng has a lot of money in his hands, he is not afraid to spend it.

Just when Su Cheng was about to leave the office, Jiang Zhiqiang called and said solemnly: "Boss, apart from the theaters we acquired, I think our Tengyue theaters can continue to expand."

"Expand outward?" Su Cheng was a little puzzled.

Jiang Zhiqiang said: "That's right, boss, I have carefully learned about the big film companies in Hollywood. If there is a blockbuster movie to be released, there will be at least 1500 to 2500 theaters showing it. And we are currently But there are only more than 1000 theaters. Movies like "Dragon and Tiger" can fully support it. But when it comes to "Back to the Future" and "True Lies", the box office will be much less. After all, we leapfrog Theatrical chains don’t have enough coverage in Hollywood.”

Hearing what he said, Su Chengcai understood that Xiangjiang is different from Hollywood, and the market is huge.Although they have acquired theaters owned by two film companies, in Hollywood, when it comes to blockbuster movies, they are screened by theaters owned by two major film companies, or three major film companies, and there are usually [-] theaters. The left and right theaters are screened together.

In this way, not only for movie box office considerations, but also to cover all medium and large cities as much as possible.

On the contrary, their Tengyue Entertainment Company is currently only fighting alone. In terms of production, they cooperate with [-]th Century Fox, but they suffer too much from the joint theater chain.

After thinking for a while, Su Cheng said: "Just these few days, Angkor went to Hollywood. I will tell him. You should first design the plan and complete the layout of the theater as soon as possible. Money is not a problem. I hope that in the shortest time Within a short period of time, let us leapfrog the theaters and occupy a certain position in Hollywood."

"Got it, boss!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng shook his head slightly, many things were whimsical.It seems that when blockbuster movies are released in the future, they will have to find a partner, otherwise, they will be targeted sooner or later, and even be isolated by major film companies.At that time, I was afraid that even the producers would encounter trouble.

Hey……

Sighing deeply, Su Chengcai walked out slowly.

……

The novel "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is much more popular than Su Cheng's previous serials "Looking for Qin Ji" and "Mythology".No matter where you go, you can hear people discussing.

From time to time, names such as Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, Jiu Jianxian, and Lin Yueru popped up one after another.

However, at this time, Tengyue TV officially broadcast the large-scale costume TV series "Myth" that had been in preparation for nearly a year.

Su Cheng hadn't watched the finished film before. At this time, he turned on Tengyue TV, and after a quick glance, he could tell that both the director and the entire crew were working hard on this drama.

To Su Cheng's surprise, the actor Yi Xiaochuan was played by Tony Leung, the heroine Yushu was played by Zhu Baoyi, and Yi Dachuan was played by Ren Dahua.Zhao Gao is played by Liao Qizhi.Lu Pheasant is played by Wen Xueer, and Lu Su is played by Zhuang Jing.Xiang Yu is played by Kaohsiung.

Although it is very different from the version in his memory, but in terms of the quality of the TV series and the many martial arts moves, it is beautiful and magnificent.Elegant, chic.Especially the fight between Yi Xiaochuan and the tiger is very intense and beautiful.However, the tiger is fake, with special effects made of models.For this reason, the production cost is much higher.

Not to mention the dance performed by Yu Shu in front of the King of Qin, it was even more wonderful.As a result, the pictures in the later "Qin Ling" took a lot of thought to design and spent a lot of money on special effects.

But this is only limited to the filming of TV dramas. If it is changed to a movie, maybe it will have to be changed again.

Speaking of which, a lot of the filming of this TV series is still in the inland side.

It wasn't that Xu Xiaoming and the others ran in person, but asked the assistant director to go.For one thing, it's not noticeable.Second, save a lot of trouble.

After all, there are no magnificent ancient cities to photograph on the Xiangjiang side.The last filming of "Looking for the Qin Dynasty" was too improvised.But "Mythology" is Su Cheng's own painstaking effort, so he can't mess around.He still thinks this version will become a classic!Of course we have to keep improving.

It is also worth mentioning that in the episode "Myth of the Stars and Moon", Su Cheng chose the original Mandarin version instead of the Cantonese version.That's it.The other songs were all completed by Li Xiaotian's music department.

As for the Mandarin version of "Mythology of the Stars and Moon", he entrusted Ye Qianwen, who speaks Mandarin well, to sing.

I'm afraid that among the female singers in Tengyue Entertainment Company, she is the only one who can sing in an authentic way!Anita Mui and others, their accents are quite poor.It sounds weird.

What Su Cheng didn't know was that his "willfulness" this time inspired the internal singers of Tengyue Entertainment, and even many singers in Xiangjiang, and gradually recorded a small amount of Mandarin songs in the Cantonese album.

As a result, after the Hong Kong-British negotiations, a large number of Mandarin songs emerged in Hong Kong.It also made many "unknown singers" rise rapidly.
